A new report has claimed China carries out tens of thousands more transplant operations each year than official records show, suggesting government-backed organ harvesting remains rife in the Communist nation.
Chinese Communist Party statistics say 7,785 organs were transplanted in 2015, but a wide-ranging investigation by a team of experts puts the number at anywhere up to 100,000.
The report, titled 'Bloody Harvest/The Slaughter: An Update', alleges Affluent Chinese and rich foreigners are the recipients of organs harvested mainly from practitioners of Falun Gong, a set of exercises with roots in Buddhism whose followers have long faced persecution.
"The ultimate conclusion is that the Chinese Communist Party has engaged the State in the mass killings of innocents, primarily practitioners of the spiritually-based set of exercises, Falun Gong, but also Uyghurs, Tibetans, and select House Christians, in order to obtain organs for transplants," reads the report.
"The actual number of transplants is far larger than the official figures, in the order of hundreds of thousands larger. Given the systematic efforts at cover up, it is impossible to affix an exact number to transplant volumes."
